In the City

down here we walk a little faster

down here we grow up real tight

down here we stick together

because down here you've gotta fight

can live off this country's waste

we consume so much in this rat race

(the city is a) human breeding ground of exploitation

but I won't become jaded

IN THE CITY

it's capitalism at its best

people living neck to neck

their glass buildings won't fall on their own

so we should be throwing stones!

IN THE CITY

some of us were born here

some of us were brought here

some of us have moved here

but none of us can leave here

IN THE CITY
